Based on pharmacological considerations, neither efficacy loss, nor adverse drug event associated with detrimental interaction are expected with opioids, stimulants, cannabinoids, and ethanol. In summary, our literature review shows that the interaction potential of DAA with most opioids and illicit drugs is limited and should not be a hurdle to the initiate DAA.

The ZnS NPs/ rGO modified GCE was used to quantify HCQ and DAC in biological fluids with recoveries of 98.7-102.7% and 96.9-104.5% and RSDs of 1.89-3.57% and 1.91-3.70%, respectively. This study suggests that the screened small molecule antiviral drugs Raltegravir, Indinavir, Tipranavir, Dolutegravir, and Etravirine could serve as potential drugs for the treatment of COVID-19 with further validation studies.
